SF’s Advance Man: Cyrus Sanandaji On the Record

In this bonus episode, we sit down with Presidio Bay’s Cyrus Sanandaji. Cyrus is at the vanguard of the comeback in America’s most important boom-and-bust town – San Francisco. His firm made prescient bets on SF’s recovery as the city began to emerge from the black hole of Covid, while also expanding a national development portfolio that today spans close to 6M square feet and is valued by the firm at $5.4B. We talk through doom loops and boom loops, capstack-sniping and how you cater to an AI industry defined by hypergrowth and extreme volatility.
